Evil Is as Evil Does

Bush instigates terrorism
Satan instigates evil
Is terrorism evil?


Text of President Bush’s address to the Joint Armed Forces Officers' Wives' Luncheon, Bolling Air Force Base


…On the morning of September the 11th, 2001, we saw the destruction that terrorists intend for our nation. We know they want to strike again, and our nation has made a clear choice: We will confront this mortal danger to *all humanity. We will not rest or tire until the war on terror is won.

*Does Bush have a creationist problem? Surely evil people are human too.

…We meet at a critical time for our military and our nation. At this hour, Americans in uniform are deployed around the world to defend our freedom and our security in *the first war of the 21st century.

*Bush is proud of this but is he boasting? And as the 2000th American was killed! Isn’t pride a sin in Christianity?*

…In his recent letter, Zawahiri writes that Al Qaida views Iraq as, quote, "the place for the greatest battle." The *terrorists regard Iraq as a central front in their war against **humanity. And we must recognize, ***Iraq is the central front in our war on terror.

*Bush regards Iraq as the central front as well
**humanity again!
***See! Whose war?

…There, the militants believe that controlling one country will rally the *Muslim masses, enabling them to overthrow all moderate governments in the region and establish a radical Islamic empire that spans from Spain to Indonesia.

*You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people ALL(1.5 billion Muslims) of the time.

…Some might be tempted to dismiss these goals as fanatical or extreme. Well, they are fanatical and extreme, and they should not be dismissed. Our enemy is utterly committed. As Zarqawi has vowed, "We will either achieve victory over the *human race or we will pass to the eternal life."

*Human! Bush apparently acknowledges that Zarqawi is not as selective in who Zarqawi deems human. Seems more inclusive to me. Who’s confused here?

…Evil men obsessed with ambition and unburdened by conscience must be taken very seriously, and we must stop them before their crimes can multiply.

hmmmmmm....


…The militants are aided as well by elements of the Arab *news media that incite hatred and anti-Semitism, that feed conspiracy theories and speak of so-called American war on Islam, with seldom a word about American action to **protect Muslims in Afghanistan, in Bosnia, in Somalia, in Kosovo and Kuwait and Iraq, with seldom a word about the generous assistance to ***Muslims recovering from natural disasters in places like Indonesia and Pakistan.

*America has a parallel media – Fox, Bill O’Riley, Ann Coulter, Chuck Coulson, David Frum, The Ayn Rand Institute, Rush Limbaugh, Pat Buchanan, Oliver North, ad insanium.
**protect American Interests
***I have yet to hear any evil-doing on the part of Bin Laden’s bunch when societies are at their most vulnerable. During the tsunami the moslems and hindus called a truce. Moslem fundamentalists are the first and most organized support for the quake victims and worked with Canadian teams until their units were set up. Katrina would have been an ideal opportunity for another attack on American soil but the only people who were left unprotected were the poor in New Orleans.

…Some have argued that extremism has been strengthened by the actions of our coalition in Iraq, claiming that *our presence in that country has somehow caused or triggered the rage of radicals.

I would remind them that **we were not in Iraq on September the 11th, 2001, and Al Qaida attacked us anyway.

*Most of the rest of the world knows that. I’m getting pissed off at American illegal trade actions against Canadian lumber
**Neither was Al Qaida!

And as we do our part to confront radicalism, we know the most vital work will be done within the Islamic world itself. And this work has begun. *Many Muslim scholars have publicly condemned terrorism, often citing Chapter 5, Verse 32 of the Koran, which states that killing an innocent human being is the killing of all -- is like killing all humanity, and saving the life of one person is like saving all of humanity.

*See! Can’t fool all of the people! Who’s confused?

And so on, and so on. But what Bush fails to recognize when he looks in the mirror is that he is the pot calling the kettle black and like the Prince of Darkness he keeps the home fires burning.

Condi’s Sweet Nothin’s


Did Condi whisper sweet nothin’s in Paul's ear or is that a pistol in his pocket?



Cool Rhetoric, Rice Urges Canada
By JEFF SALLOT
Wednesday, October 26, 2005

"...Ms. Rice also took note of concerns about gun smuggling, saying U.S. and Canadian authorities are working together to improve security along the border against smugglers, terrorists and other threats. Ottawa says about half the gun crimes in Canada involve weapons that have come north illegally."

Up until the other day Martin and Pettigrew were seeking $5 billion in damages from the illegal US action on softwood lumber. Since Condi arrived we are seeing the figure of $3.5 bilion! What gives Paul? Is there some kind of negotiating going on behind closed doors? Is Pierre in on this too? What else is going on behind closed doors?

Sleeping with the Elephant, Swimming with the Shark

I took a liberty. The temptation to comment on an article in The Globe and Mail newspaper last week was irresistible. The thing is, my sister passed on her subscription login to me (it used to be free) and I discovered after posting it was in her name! She was quite surprised to have gotten an email from the editor accepting ‘her’ comment:

Karen Hutton,

Martin should realise that he is in a tank with a great white shark. Get out of the tank. Get out of NAFTA.
